It has been more than seven years, since we saw a Pullip mermaid being released and back then it was Pullip Jaldet in February 2011, who was sporting a darker theme with her black clothes and amazingly colourful make-up. In 2018 Pullip Alrescha Pisces will bring something else to the maritime table with a natural face and her frilly pastel coloured fishtail.
How does her face compare to Pullip Princess Rosalind? Is her stock up my alley? Let’s get started!When I saw her, I immediately fell for her, but also felt a certain familiarity. Then it hit me: I just acquired Pullip Princess Rosalind last month and from what I am seeing, Alrescha Pisces’ eye make-up is basically the same. The lip colour seems different, the shape of her brows as well. The eyechips have the same colour, but different accents. Rosalind has glitter in hers and just one white dot. Alrescha Pisces also has two white dots with additional indigo blue and turquoise ones to sit on top her golden brown eyechips with their overall design reminding me of rays. I am super happy actually that these types of eyechips are making a comeback, since you could see them on a lot of girls just a few years ago and I think that they are super cute and give the eyes some extra dimension. And it is fun to switch looks up!
Her outfit looks great too; my personal favourite being her amazing headpiece, which incorporated pastel turquoise shells, golden chains and pearls with a little bit of white lace! It is a beautiful and summery piece.
Alrescha Pisces also has a lovely white neckholder bikini top with lots and lots of pearls. It looks detailed and out of great quality and – not too be underrated – super fashionable! I could definitely see myself using it in different, not mermaid-themed, outfits. I just hope, it’s not to revealing and that you don’t need double-sided tape to keep everything in place!
The fishtail, is where the fantasy kicks in: I encourage you to zoom in on it, to see that it has actual sequins sewn onto the front and its overall pastel mint material with glittery silver coloured spots.
In the back is where the party is at: Rows of pastel mint and pastel lilac frills going all the way to the ground. To make Alrescha Pisces’ look a little more glamourous, there are more chains and pearls going around her hip area.
My final thoughts are: I am wondering, whether this girl will wear any shoes, even though I doubt it. Her wig looks nice, lovely and unproblematic. Should you get her, when you already have Rosalind? In my opinion it depends on how much you love Rosalind and if there is any space left in your apartment to collect similar girls. If you don’t have Rosalind, I can only recommend her due to those amazing lashes: Trust me, they are everything!
What are your thoughts on Alrescha Pisces? Did her announcement this morning surprise you?
Thank you so much for reading!
